Resolved, the House of _______ concurring, That the 76th General Convention of The Episcopal Church assign $15,000 to the work of the Standing Commission on Episcopal Communications for the 2010-2013 Triennium; and be it further

Resolved, That the General Convention request the Joint Standing Committee on Program, Budget and Finance to consider a budget allocation of $15,000 for the implementation of this Resolution.

EXPLANATION

The Standing Commission on Episcopal Church Communications has been hampered in fulfilling its mandate by having yet to be given any funds by General Convention to carry out the work it was asked to do. The funds requested should provide sufficient money to hold three meetings during the upcoming triennium and cover any administrative cost that the Standing Commission incurs.
